My friend Brooke inspired me with her recent posts about her daughter, Zuzu, and the hilarity that is spoken in her house. You have to go over and read her posts... toddlers are a riot.

Scene: Early morning and the kids are rummaging around in our bedroom. Claire finds a plastic bag with an empty bottle inside.
Benjamin: {grabs bag and runs} No, thief!
(Apparently all the readings of his favorite Peter Rabbit book are adding to his vocabulary. He just loves that naughty bunny.)
--
Scene: Living room, climbing on top of the very unsafe and not to be climbed Ballapallooza toy.
Benjamin: {yelling to me as I'm in the kitchen} Mom! Take a picture. I being dangerous!
(He loves being dangerous. And naughty. Dangerous and naughty. He also was proud to tell me about his dangerous ways as he attempted to climb the luggage rack on the commuter train from the second level on Sunday.)

Scene: In his bedroom after nap. We were talking about going to the children's museum that morning and why we left the museum prematurely.
Mom: Didn't we have a fun morning? What did we do?
Benjamin: I go to children's museum. I kick off my shoes. I make a poor choice.

Scene: Afternoon, just hanging out in the kitchen.
Benjamin: Mommy, sing please mommy dod? Know dat song?
Mom: Yes, I know that one... "Feliz Navidad, Feliz Navidad..."

Scene: Benjamin finished art at the table (i.e. scissors, paper and glue stick, no rules)
Benjamin: I cut dis for you. Mommy, are you proud?
Mom: Yes, Benjamin. I'm so proud of you!

LOL. I love "I being dangerous!"
And his honesty about making a poor choice. Zuzu will totally own being on the naughty list. Makes me crazy that they recognize but don't really seem to regret their poor choices!
